    goodness of his heart." Odysseus‚ who is the main character of the book "The Odyssey" written by Homer‚ would fit the dictionary¹s definition of a hero; but if you go deeper‚ looking at what people feel a hero is‚ he doesn¹t even come close.

    Odysseus & Aeneas By: Chance E-mail: mmb0014@unt.edu If there is any possibility that a comparison could be made with the famous journeys of Odysseus and Aeneas‚ it must be known that Aeneas is actually a hero in search of his own soul while Odysseus is a hero trying to find his old life and in a sense‚ his old soul.
